Top cities for cat sitting in New Zealand

Many cat owners will understand that cats can be fussy and prefer their own home environment rather than an unfamiliar place like a cattery or cat hotel. Although some cats can adapt to cat boarding if they have to, most cats become stressed when transported somewhere new.

This is where a friendly Lower Hutt Pawshake cat feeder or carer can help. Our Lower Hutt cat sitting expert can come and visit your cat while you are away on holiday or at work. A cat sitter can even stay overnight if required, which is far less stressful than sending your feline friend to a cattery for cat boarding. Whether you just need a sitter for a couple of hours or someone to visit each day for a week, our Lower Hutt cat sitters can tailor their service to suit you and please even the fussiest kitty.

Although most cats are independent, having a cat carer visit has a lot of benefits. Your chosen Pawshake cat sitter can feed, freshen up the water bowl, tidy the litter tray, and spend quality time with your cat. And unlike a cattery or cat hotel, your cat can chill out in their own familiar space.

Finally, every booking with Pawshake is with a verified carer and includes the Pawshake Guarantee and veterinary coverage, so you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your feline companion!

I'm an experienced foster and amateur dog trainer looking to make more furry best friends. I've usually got between 2 and 4 dogs at home at any one time with a mix of ages. Currently two foster pups between 4-6 months of age and one resident grumpy old lady.For younger dogs, homestays will be considered if they're a good fit for the resident dog and foster dogs. All dogs must be vaccinated unless underage. Happy to adminisiter oral medications.I can incorporate training into visits, special focus on loose lead training and walking manners. Will structure location and type of walk to the nature of the dog and won't let them loose until I've built a bond with them. Happy to do local meet and greets before committing to anything, I think it's important to ensure it's the right fit.I look forward to meeting my new puppy pals and going on adventures together!

Hi! I’m Cathy, an animal lover based in Kelson, Lower Hutt.

I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets throughout my life, including a Golden Retriever and a British Shorthair cat. Most recently, I had my own beloved dog, who sadly passed away in January. Losing her was heartbreaking, but it also deepened my understanding of how precious and important our pets are in our lives.

Over the years, I’ve gained experience through looking after friends’ and neighbours’ pets, including caring for a young Golden Retriever for over a month. I’m patient, responsible, and always attentive to each pet’s individual needs.

I currently offer home visits for feeding (including cats), playtime, and dog walking. While I don’t provide boarding, I’m more than happy to visit your home to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

At the moment, I don’t have pets at home, which allows me to fully focus on giving your pets my time, care, and attention.

If you’re looking for someone reliable, gentle, and genuinely passionate about animal wellbeing, I’d love to meet you and your furry family members.
Let’s arrange a Meet &amp; Greet to see if we’re the right fit!

Looking forward to meeting you,
Cathy 

Hi there, I'm Meredith from Lower Hutt! I have 3 dogs of my own, and have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I recently completed a New Zealand Certificate in Animal Management in Canine Behaviour and Training. And I am now studying a Bachelor of Animal Science via distance with Massey University. I also instruct dog training classes at my local dog club in Avalon.
Im available to walk your dogs, do drop in visits and by arrangement and approval can do pet or house sitting. I can have dogs for daycare during the day at my home! My property is fully fenced and I will give full attention to your pets! I am confident giving medication and training your pets, and can provide basic grooming if needed. I am able to pet sit in your home and may be open to having pets overnight at my home but I am cautious as I have 3 pets of my own but this can be discussed. 
I'm free on weekdays and most weekends, and this role is perfect to fit in with my university studies. I am confident with all breeds and sizes of dogs and have experience working with and walking reactive and aggressive dogs. My 3 dogs are Chewy 5 (GWP), Lulu 4 (Golden Retriever) and Disney 16 months old (Dalmatian). They are the most lovable dogs who get along with everyone they meet! I'm available to look after or walk your pets individually, or they are more than welcome to tag along with my dogs when we head out!
I live in lower hutt near many parks and walkways and live right next door to an off lead dogs allowed field!
If you have any questions, dont hesitate to reach out! I can't wait to hear about your pets!

About Me &amp; What I Offer as a Pet Sitter

Hi! My name is Chanukie and I’m passionate about animals especially dogs and puppies. Growing up, our home was always full of life, laughter, and lots of wagging tails. We had a spacious garden where our dogs could run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely. My two siblings and I shared the responsibility of caring for our pets, which gave me hands-on experience in feeding, grooming, training, and giving them all the love and attention they deserved.

With years of personal experience, I’ve become very comfortable around dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and emotional connection for pets, and I’m committed to making sure every pet I care for feels safe, loved, and relaxed—whether it's a short walk, a daily visit, or an overnight stay.

Here’s what I offer:

* Dog walking tailored to your pet’s energy and pace
* Home visits for feeding, playtime, and cuddles
* Overnight pet sitting in your home (if needed)
* Basic grooming and care
* Constant communication and photo updates so you can feel confident while you're away

I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I know how important trust is when it comes to pet care. I’d be honored to look after your furry family member!

Hey! I am Hutt local looking to work in ways where I actually help someone in need, wether it is you or your dog. 
I am doing self employed work, so i am able to fit in extra in my spare time to take care of your doggos, to pet sit or walking im happy to do it. 
I am able to work with large energy where they need some stable feet, or to be gentle with your small furry friend, nature is my passion, it starts with the closest next to you.
I have a full license so i can get to places on time, and i have plenty of time at the moment so why not give my time to others who need it, I also have years of dog behaviour analysis behind me, 
I am friendly and motivated so give me a call when life gets busy and your friends need company. 

I was mum to Zoe, a beauitiful hunterway bearded collie for 14 years. She was my 3rd baby.  I love dogs/animals. I treat them as if they are my own.   I ofen speak to dogs when out before I meet their owners. Dogs just love me, because I love them.  I've done many dog sits both in nZ and overseas.I have been asked back in many dog sits, because I do such a great job and the dog is well cared for in my charge.   I prefer to dog sit in the dog's house, because I think they're more at home there.  I treat the house as if its my own, keeping it tidy.  Im very professional, curteous and respectful.  I get on easily with most people and dogs. I have boundaries and just like kids need boundaries, so do dogs. As someone once said to me 'You're firm but fair' which I believe I am.I grew up with dachsunds and we still have them in my family.  I have also worked at HUHA for a while and realised then that just like humans dogs just want love, kindness, attention, food and walks.  It changed my perspective on dogs greatly. There are no bad dogs, just poor owners.Dogs are a big responsibility. They are like another family member and we need to realise that.During the day, I have dog walking commitments as well as other work, I also work from home, so I am not able to be home with your fur babies all the time. That said, I am open to a discussion.Helen was excellent at communicating right through the process of house-sitting. Always proactive and reliable. We really appreciated the photos, videos and regular communication from her during our time away. Our dog got plenty of exercise and love, and was happy and and well on our return. We very much appreciated her care for our pup.

Heyooo! I’m a passionate animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets and farm animals.
